Cookie cutters

Hearts have long been a highly known and popular badge of love and the occasion on Valentines Day. Red hearts specifically are an old and standard symbol of love. This is because of the scientific fact that the human heart is perceived to beat in a more rapid fashion when excited. In the older times, the heart was also perceived to be the center of emotion and love.
So whether it is Valentines Day or any other ordinary day of the year, a heart-shaped gift demonstrates a lot about how much you care and love your beloved. So grab and dig out those really nice heart cookie cutters and splash in a dish of a whole bunch of creativity.
If you are looking for that tiny inspiration here are some of my favorite cookie cutter moments to say I love you to your beloved the whole year round:

I Love You Toast
Rather than doing the ordinary toast, give a pleasant surprise to your loved ones this Valentines day with their very distinct “I Love You” toast. Utilize a big cookie cutter to cut the center out of a slice of bread. Toast and then splash it with that nice strawberry or raspberry jam.

French Toast Hearts
For a nice and unique twist on that regular French toast, get a heart-shaped version. Cut out the bread by using large cookie cutter.

Heart Sandwiches
Cut out heart sandwiches utilizing a big heart cookie cutter. Or, for another outstanding sandwich idea, spread over strawberry jam on one slice of bread, after that utilize a cookie cutter to make a heart shape out of a second slice of bread. When you put the two slices together you now have a beautiful and amazing red heart jam sandwich that will truly be a delight to your kids.

Valentine Brownies
Come up with your favorite brownie recipe however instead of cutting into small squares, utilize a heart cookie cutter. Savor all the little leftover pieces yourself – I will not tell the kids.

Fruit Gelatin Hearts
Ingredients:
One half cup frozen strawberries (thawed)
Four envelopes gelatine, unflavored
Two cups of boiling water
One can of frozen apple juice concentrate
Cooking spray
Utilize a blender to puree the strawberries. Drain off any liquid initially. Set aside the strawberry puree. Pour the gelatin into a bowl and out in two cups of boiling water. Stir until it gets fully dissolved. Splash in the strawberry puree into the liquid gelatin mix. Blend well. Blend in a can of frozen apple juice concentrate. Put in oil a 9x12 inch pan with cooking spray. Pour in the mixture. Chill until it gets firm. When it solidifies, turn the pan upside down and slice out the gelatin utilizing heart cookie cutters.

Heart Gift Wrap
Utilizing a heart cookie cutter, red paint and some white or even a pink paper you can come up with some beautiful heart gift wrap. Just pour in the paint in a shallow dish, dip in the cookie cutter and begin making heart prints just all over the paper. Once dry, utilize the paper to wrap up all your Valentines gifts.

Heart Garland
Trace out a some dozen hearts, cut them out and put them together at the edges to come up with an impressive heart garland.
